We offer Day-rooms, set on a block of hours during the day.  Our time-bands are predetermined and thus you cannot book a room 'by the hour'. We don't believe in rushing, which is why our time bands range from three hours up to 12 hours, and at a better value rate than booking by the minute or hour. Or even 'by night' for that matter...

Yes. Upon check-in, let the receptionist know you'd like to pay in cash. Don't forget that you also need to cover incidentals, which are usually around $100 per booking, depending on the hotel.

The minimum age to book a hotel room is 18 years old. However, some hotels are more strict and will not allow any person under 21 to check-in. To be safe, we ask that you be at least 21 years old to book

Generally, day-use rooms are 'run of the house' - meaning that whatever room is vacant will be assigned to you. However, the hotel reserves the right to assign specific rooms on the website such as a 'King Room' or 'Double Bed'

Specific room assignments can also be requested at check-in. Make sure to ask the front desk for a room type that you prefer and they will assign it to you if they have the availability.

Hotels have set specific rooms for day stays, so generally you would be assigned what is available. Although you are more than welcome to request anything specific when checking in!

Yes, they can. Essentially, a day room is guaranteed for the hours listed, which has been extensively negotiated on your behalf. Any changes to booking times are subject to the hotel's discretion.

You have two options to book with HotelsByDay:

- You can "pay at the hotel" which grants you free cancellation up to the same day.

- You can also select a "non-refundable" booking. This means that you'll need to provide credit card details to book a day room. Once booked, the hotel will not allow us to change the date, cancel, or refund the stay.

Most airport hotels provide free shuttle service.  Most shuttles run every 20 minutes during business hours, and every 45 minutes at night-times.  You need to inquire at the airport 'Help Desk' for details on specific shuttle services to a close-by airport property.  Otherwise, another option is to check on our website's hotel descriptions for detailed shuttle service: www.HotelsByDay.com

Room types are assigned at check-in. Please ask for your preferred room type at arrival and the hotel staff will do their utmost to please you.  Please note however that some room types come at a premium and you may be asked to pay a little extra for upgrades.

Allergies are taken very seriously by our team at HotelsByDay!  If you face one that may impact your hotel stay, please contact us immediately so that we can warn the hotel about it.  Contact details are at the page footer.

We think not!  It's actually modern to book a room for a few hours, as in our increasingly busy lives, we are in dire need for flexibility and for service providers to accomodate our every needs.  So why not with hotel stays?  As a matter of fact, even Conde Nast Traveler titled one of their articles as such: 'How To Book A Hotel Room By The Hour Without Looking Shifty'  --- look it up! 

To make you happy!  by the hour... :)
